A designer's personal home, where effortless chic meets everyday function. This is what it looks like when a designer renovates her own home. Quietly positioned on a no-through-traffic street in coveted Steiner Ranch, this limestone residence has been transformed by its designer-owner into something the market rarely sees: a truly turnkey home with over $130,000 in curated upgrades completed between 2023 and 2026. The fully reimagined kitchen sets the tone — quartz countertops and backsplash, custom vent hood, Zline range cooktop, new cabinet doors and drawer fronts, under-cabinet lighting, and layered sconces, all opening to the living area for effortless entertaining. New engineered hardwood flows through most of the home. Every surface has been considered: fresh interior paint throughout, custom drapery in the primary suite, living room, and office, Roman shades in the breakfast nook and guest bedrooms, updated fireplace tile and mantle, and new lighting and ceiling fans in every room. Outdoors, the backyard was reimagined with artificial turf, a firepit with rocks and pavers, and mature shade trees. The front yard features a two-phase xeriscape transformation with native plants, a magnolia tree, and a stone pathway from street to front door. Mechanicals are equally dialed in: new 50-gallon gas water heater, dedicated irrigation valve, and new garage door springs. High ceilings, large windows with natural light that pours in. Homes with this level of investment and design intention in Steiner Ranch are exceptionally rare. Note that the 4th bedroom is used as the home office.

Neighborhood guide and local insights
Steiner Ranch is a 4,600-acre master-planned community in 78732, built along the bluffs above Lake Austin and Lake Travis. Median home price $800K. Leander ISD schools (Laura Bush Elementary, Canyon Ridge Middle, Vandegrift High), three resort-style community pools, 20+ miles of trails, and private Lake Austin access via the Lake Club. Around 6,500 homes across multiple sections, built from the late 1990s through today. Housing ranges from $500K townhomes to $2M+ estates backing to the UT Golf Club (Roy Bechtol championship course, 7,412 yards). The community is fully built out in most sections, with limited new construction remaining. Daily life revolves around being outside. Trail runners hit J Canyon and Powerline Hill loops before work. The Lake Club gives residents private boat launch access with eleven day-use docks on Lake Austin. Lake Travis is five minutes from the community entrance. Steiner Ranch Steakhouse — panoramic lake views, live music seven nights a week — is the social center. What makes Steiner Ranch the value play for lake-adjacent living: resort-level amenities at a fraction of Lake Austin waterfront pricing, strong schools, and a community infrastructure (pools, trails, golf, lake access) that most master-planned developments can't match. The tradeoff is the 620 commute — 25-35 minutes to downtown depending on traffic.
